You will have a hard time not dancing, clapping or singing along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kicks Dixieland Band:<\/strong> The Kicks Band was founded in 1975 by Edward Christianson for musicians to enjoy music socializing, playing great big band literature, and improvising jazz. The band got together just for \u201cKICKS\u201d. Ed made it a priority to provide all band members\u2019 opportunities to improvise and to feel musically satisfied. The Dixieland side of the band is a smaller group performing around our regions celebrating Jazz in all its forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Heather Rae & the Heather Rae Band:<\/strong> Heather Rae is an Indie\/Pop singer-songwriter based in Nashville, TN. She broke out into the entertainment industry as a figure skater, singer and emcee in professional ice shows and continues to perform in various ice shows today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As an artist, she has performed in various venues around Nashville including the famous Bluebird Caf\u00e9 and, a fan favorite, the Gaylord Opryland Resort. Heather Rae\u2019s refreshingly unique pop sound is a rare find in a city known for its country music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Matt Hodek & The Dakota Dutchmen: This seven-member authentic polka band based out of Lankin, North Dakota plays numerous engagements throughout the United States. Instrumentation is a key part of the band with several members playing multiple instruments including piano accordion, button accordion, concertina, valve trombone, trumpet, baritone, tuba, clarinet, tenor sax, piano and melodica piano along with vocals. Laddie Pecka plays two trumpets at the same time and Rose Pecka & Donnie Swartz entertain with their high energy piano duets. Playing good old time tunes: waltz, polka, schottische and two step tempo, the band will make you tap your toes and put a smile on your face as they play \u201chappy music for happy people\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sugar Gliders: Local band, based right here in Jamestown, with decades of musical experience and plenty of talent.

Past Artists Summer 2022: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jessie Veeder: With unique and interestingly beautiful vocals, Veeder\u2019s lyrics swell with references to her own life experiences growing up on a working cattle ranch in the rugged land of Western North Dakota. Veeder\u2019s ability to captivate audiences with stories of her love for the landscape, the culture and the people of small town America is what pulls at the heartstrings of audiences across the globe and made her original music such a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
